Kevin Costner put $38 million of his own money into passion project, « Horizon: An American Saga, » but isn’t quite ready to hang up his cowboy hat on « Yellowstone. »
Kevin Costner hasn’t ruled out a « Yellowstone » return even if his eyes are focused on « Horizon. »
The Academy Award-winning actor admitted that John Dutton could very likely be part of his future despite his unique history with Taylor Sheridan.
Ahead of the release of the first installment of « Horizon: An American Saga », CBS Sunday Morning asked Costner if he would like to go back to « Yellowstone. »
« Yeah, if I liked the story, where it was going, I would go back », Costner admitted.
He further clarified that he didn’t have to leave the show to complete his movie, « Horizon. »
« I did everything that I was contracted to do with ‘Yellowstone' », Costner said.
Fox News Digital was in the courtroom when Costner, 69, hinted at a possible legal showdown over money he is owed from his time on « Yellowstone » while fighting over child support payments with ex-wife Christine Baumgartner. Before a judge ruled in favor of the actor in September over monthly child custody payments, Costner spoke in depth about the drama surrounding « Yellowstone » season 5.
Costner seemingly had issues with the timing of filming « Yellowstone » as he wanted to focus on « Horizon. » The first movie in the four-part saga was in post-production, a « critical » time in the process. « I’m here », Costner emphasized while on the stand.
« Somewhere along the line they wanted to change things », he said of the « Yellowstone » filming process. « They wanted to do 5A and 5B… affected ‘Horizon.’ I was going to do my movie ‘Horizon’ and leave that show, do my movie, then do B. »
He added, « A show I was only doing once a year, I was now doing twice.
